The sight I have on my bow has 4 fiber cables for various yardages. Somehow I broke the end on one of them and it is dangling. If I attempt to superglue the end back, will I still get the benefit of the fiber collecting light which is its intended purpose?

Thanks,

Hi dbteeitup
Actually the fibre won't work bcoz by supergluing it, you blocking the light beam.I would then suggest you hire a fusion splicer, but again you need correct cutting apparatus and cleaning fluid.
